Yeah, they did.

I don't get it.

I assumed injury since he wasn’t active but who knows.
 

Many felt otherwise but I had said a healthy Byrd was the best option we had a returner in years and we proceeded to let him walk. I’ll never understand the devaluing of that position.

YESSSS! I finally get a former Gamecock not named Damiere Byrd to cheer for!

On a serious note, this is a good pick up. He's got power but still has pass catching ability. Definitely an upgrade over Bonnafon.

The guy who Chicago paid then watched him never do anything so they cut him?

We didn't already have good backs on the roster that we aren't using? :thinking:

He’s a good back, was solid in a starting role in Seattle last year. Issue in Chicago is their coaching staff is incompetent offensively and they drafted a stud workhorse in Montgomery this year while having Tarik Cohen too. Wasn’t room for him.

Very interesting pick up IMO.  Not your typical cut as the Bears wanted a comp pick. He has a chance to surprise and is definitely good insurance right now.  Nice move.

Surprise whom? Doing what?

Surprise the janitorial staff with how early he shows up to do film study? Surprise his teammates with an impressive knowledge of 18th century Chinese artwork? 

I'm kinda groping for what you mean by surprise, because clearly it won't be football related. In order to surprise anyone when it comes to football, he'd need to get on the field, and considering Reggie Bonnafon has barely seen the field AFTER taking one 50 plus yards to the house, and Scarlett seems lost in some sideline space/time anomaly ever since looking like he deserved a few reps after his preseason performance, I would not want to bet on Davis's odds of actually getting on the field while a game is in progress unless he plays special teams.

I find this move baffling given Riverboat seems unaware his team even has backup running backs available to spell CMC.

      DJ Moore. The quitting WR

      By fieryprophet · Posted

      This play was never designed to go to either DJ or Odunze. The primary read is Burden who is stymied early, with the outlet being Kmet if Caleb doesn't like the option for Burden. Given the situation it's pretty obvious the simple play is to take the free yards with Kmet, or if you want to be aggressive just wait a beat longer for Burden to uncover on his double move. If Moore was ever going to be a viable target in this play then Caleb should have started out reading Odunze to hold the safety in the middle and then coming to Moore, but because he started the snap staring down the right and then came back to the middle late it made it where the safety's leverage remained to the outside of Moore, so he would never have imagined that pass actually being thrown to him in that situation. Realistically DJ's best option in that context is to just occupy the safety to leave a hole open for Caleb to get it to Burden, which is probably why he throttles down vs carrying the safety across.

      2026 Mock Drafts

      By panfanman · Posted

      Even with Sonny Styles still on the board I thought it's a no brainer to address the Oline after Icky's injury.  And how can you pass up Fano at 19 given our situation. Then the rest of the draft just kind of made sense with maybe the exception of Klubnik.  But if Canales can fix him and Young goes down. . .I think it's a solid pick. What do you think of this draft?

      When we didn't trade him to the Rams or the Bears (I believe the Bears said they would take one of Brown/ Burns/DJ Moore) we should have just signed him and kept him.  We should have traded him to the Rams obviously and we should have kept DJ and traded Burns.  We made all three wrong choices with Burns lol.
